Okay... this started out as a oneshot, but last night I suddenly got inspired, so...

HERE IT GOES!

--Don't own instant star, the characters , or the song--

G-major was having yet another party. The whole office was there. But it wasn't just another party. It was an unoffical "Instant Star" type deal.

Darius decided to have a showcase at a local club every six weeks to search for raw talent. Two had already happened, and he got a great emo/punk

band out of the deal. He required all the people who worked a G-Major to go because of the press, and to get their opinions.

"I hate these things... they suck" Patsy said with disgust. This was not her scene.

"Ahhh my dear, but its a free party." Jamie remined her Just then, they heard a comotion at the entrance. They looked at eachother.

"Jude and Speed" they said simultaneoulsy. The press loved them. They were the perfect couple. But to those who knew them... it was definetly the opposite.

"Hey guys, what's up?" Jude asked as they got closer. "Nothing much... just commenting on the suckiness of this whole shebang" Patsy said, hugging Jude.

They have gotten close ever since that jail thing.

"Yeah, dude it does suck. but it's what we get paid to do." Speed said agreeing. they all chatted for a few minuites until Speed looked at the time and said he'd be right back.

"Hmm I wonder where he's going?" Jude said. she waved to wally and Kyle who just got there. "Alright Harrison, we're going to get drinks. Want anything?" Jamie asked.

"Yeah, a club soda." she said with a smile. While she waited for them to come back, she felt a familiar pair of arms snake around her waist. "Hey you" she said smiling.

"Hey" he said in return. "I kinda missed you" she said. "Kinda? Kinda? that's all I get? I'm hurt a little bit.. right there." He said and pointed at his heat. "Only right there?"

she asked. "Yup... gotta stay away from your womaly wiles" he said back. Jude just smiled. she loved their playful banter.

"Club soda?" Patsy said as she returned. "Thanks" Jude said, taking the drink. Just then, Jamie was onstage.

"Alright people, it's time to start this thing. First of all I would like to say Congratulations to the artists who are about to perform tonight. It's great that you got this far. We have

a pretty good mix of people tonight. alot of different music. So people, prepare yourselves for our first band, not exactly a stranger to G-major, Spiederman Mind Explosion!"

Jamie walked off stage and Joined Jude, Patsy, and Tommy? when did he get here?

"This is not going to be good" Jamie thought as he said hi to tommy and turned toward the stage.

Spied made no introduction... he just launched into his song...

I'm coming out of my cage
And I've been doing just fine
Gotta gotta be down
Because I want it all
It started out with a kiss
How did it end up like this?
It was only a kiss, it was only a kiss
Now I'm falling asleep
And she's calling a cab
While he's having a smoke
And she's taking a drag
Now they're going to bed
And my stomach is sick
And it's all in my head
But she's touching his chest
Now, he takes off her dress
Now, let me go

Jamie turned and looked a Tommy and Jude. Both of them have shocked and shamed lookes on their faces.

And I just can't look - it's killing me
And taking control
Jealousy, turning saints into the sea
Turning through sick lullabies
Choking on your alibis
But it's just the price I pay
Destiny is calling me
Open up my eager eyes
'Cause I'm Mr Brightside

I'm coming out of my cage
And I've been doing just fine
Gotta gotta be down
Because I want it all

Spied paused for a second and looked directly at the love of his life.


It started out with a kiss

Jude just looked down.

Now I'm falling asleep
And she's calling a cab
While he's having a smoke
And she's taking a drag
Now they're going to bed
And my stomach is sick
And it's all in my head
But she's touching his chest
Now, he takes off her dress
Now, let me go

'Cause I just can't look - it's killing me

Jealousy, turning saints into the sea
Turning through sick lullabies
Choking on your alibis
But it's just the price I pay
Destiny is calling me
Open up my eager eyes
'Cause I'm Mr Brightside

I never...
I never...
I never...
I never...

They finished their song to a huge, roaring applause. they were definetly a crowd favorite. They had decided to do the showcase because

because they wanted to be fair. As they walked off the stage, he noticed a familiar blond head walking out the door... followed by him.

She turned and looked at him, hurt and sorry in her eyes. He returned her gaze, and just simply mouthed

"I love you"
